Getting some work done in the garden and the lads are a couple of mags in their 40s/50s. Nice lads (one is my mate's Dad) but when we get on the subject of football, the nonsense they come out with man
1. Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool and Tottenham got together to put pressure on the PL to refuse approval for the Saudi takeover (I was tempted to point out the PL never got as far as making a decision, but whatever....just let them go)
2. John Hall had to sell NUFC to Mike Ashley because his son had wasted "all the family money" on failed property developments in Spain
3. The lad who went to jail was "well known in Castle Eden for being a peado"
4. Brother of said individual (who happens to be a mate of one of my contractors) "knew he was up to this all the time" (pretty sure he doesn't have a brother)
5. Both of them HATE all footballers, including Shearer
6. Never going back to watch their team until Ashley sells (I know more than a few "massive mags" who don't go to games for that reason)
7. They know loads of NUFC lads who buried their shirts under the stands at The SOL
Like I say, nice lads, but they don't half talk ****e
